Rec #2 - Single WHOIS Policy

THIS RECOMMENDATION WAS FULLY IMPLEMENTED BY JUNE 2015. NO FURTHER UPDATES TO THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BELOW WILL BE POSTED.

The ICANN Board should oversee the creation of a single WHOIS policy document, and reference it in subsequent versions of agreements with Contracted Parties. In doing so, ICANN should clearly document the current gTLD WHOIS policy as set out in the gTLD Registry and Registrar contracts and GNSO Consensus Policies and Procedure.
